DISC INSPECTION :

Before assembling the caliper back to the carrier,

the disc should be inspected.

The disc should be cleaned with dry cloth, oil

traces to be wiped out completely.

The disc should be free from score marks. If

scored, it should be ground and refitted.

Following precautions should be taken during

grinding:

At no time more than 0.25 mm

(0.10”)

should

be ground per side.

If the total thickness of the disc after grinding is

found to be less than 24 mm in case of front

disc and 10mm in case of rear disc, the disc

should be changed.

NOTE :

Minimum thickness of front disc = 24mm

Minimum thickness of rear disc = 10mm

After fitment, the run out of the disc should be

measured.

(For procedure refer disc run-out

measurement procedure.)

The run out should

be less than 0.130 mm otherwise pedal

pulsation will be felt during brake application.

NOTE :

Before assembly clean the mating faces of

the hub and brake disc.

DRUM INSPECTION :

Inspect the drum for cleanliness.

Check for crack, scores etc. Check braking

surface for wear by measuring the inside

diameter.

Brake Drum Standard inside diameter “A”

is 206 mm.

Brake Drum usable inside diameter “A” is

207.5 mm.

If it more, brake drum should be

replaced.

Drum to be discarded if found cracked scored

excessively or grooved.

Do not weld a cracked drum. It is unsafe and

must be replaced.

Smoothen up any slight scores Heavy or

extensive scoring will cause excessive brake

lining wear and it will be necessary to

resurface drum braking surface.
